Are we seeing a repeat of 2016?
Winning was secondary to setting up a nice grift...
Taking over the RNC to siphon money off for legal bill instead of using those resources for down ballot races.
One would think that Donnie could get someone to post his bond with a lean against his truth social windfall.
Letting NY seize a few properties is good theater.
Declaring personal bankruptcy could have unintended consequences

Every state overtly chose at inception Rule of law
Not Rule by Force

Ever since then RbF guy have been trying to add in exceptions to legitimize the use of force
Adding complications to leave room for interpretation of rules/laws is a classic good ol boy scheme, great for the guild of lawyers :D The ends never justify the means
There can be the rare situation where force has to be met with force, it's the unnecessary use/escalation where it goes wrong

Stop it You Know Better!
People claim otherwise to further their own interests
We really do know better...
Stop it You Know Better!
Try it as a response to a troll

There is only one meaningful moral tenet
Don't Be a Dick !
Don't do stuff to others you wouldn't want to have happen to you
Don't Be a Dick!

Except the part where we get the occasionally get to make a binary choice of which candidate sucks the least between a fascist & a neolib corporate shill .
The rules & who gets to write/enforce them determine the winners.
The donor class decides who the candidates are, money being speech & all We outsourced the a big chunk of the election process to the parties to avoid raising taxes to pay for elections.
The thought was the party fanatics would work for free.
No one ever works for free. The pay is influence, future consideration for decisions...

I'm agnostic
There simply isn't enough information to declare with certainty our origins or how it all got set in motion
It's ok for a question to remain a question
There is only one meaningful moral tenet
Don't be a dick
Don't do things to others you wouldn't want to have happen to you
As exemplified by
Stop It You Know Better
